Collected for the first time ever, the MARVEL MASTERWORKS bring you the
ground-breaking, trend-setting Black Panther from JUNGLE ACTION! In
1973 comics’ first African super hero took the headlining slot in an
ambitious ongoing series, beginning a 13-issue epic unprecedented in
its time. Writer Don McGregor teamed with artists Rich Buckler and
Billy Graham to tell “Panther’s Rage,” a story so huge it ranges across
the savannah, into the deepest jungles and up to the snow-topped
mountains of Wakanda. Over its course McGregor & Co. would define
T’Challa, give full depth and life to the Wakandas and their culture,
while pitting the Panther against the murderous Erik Killmonger for
control of the kingdom. Not one to rest on his laurels, McGregor then
set out to raise the bar once again, sending T’Challa to the American
South to investigate the murder of Angela Lynne and its connection to
the Klan and the history of the Soul Strangler. A challenging storyline
by a challenging storyteller, you’ll read it and so much more in this
much anticipated hardcover classic!

From
the heart of the Golden Age of Comics, the white-hot hero of the
decade, the Human Torch, comes burning at you with another exciting
quartet of never before reprinted comic adventures! Between keeping
America safe on the homefront and fighting the Axis powers abroad, the
Torch and his kid sidekick Toro have their work cut out for them.
They’ll face Nazi rockets, Gestapo madmen, fifth columnists and more as
they fight the good fight for the U.S.A. The action really gets going
in the massive, 45-page “Death Dance of the Atlantic” when the Torch
and Toro find the Sub-Mariner manning a Nazi U-boat. It’s an
action-packed dash to capture comics’ most tempestuous sometimes-hero
and decode the Axis’ secret signal system, told in the manner that made
Marvel great. Backed up by solo Sub-Mariner tales, along with the boy
adventurer Jimmy Jupiter and humor shorts by the likes of Basil
Wolverton, every issue is a cornucopia from Marvel’s early years. Dig
into the Golden Age and dig into history!

The soaring Sentinel of the Spaceways makes a MARVEL MASTERWORKS splash
with his unmatched solo series. Illustrated by the master of man,
menace, and motion, the one-and-only John Buscema, and featuring some
of Stan Lee’s most inspired and socially-charged scripts of the Silver
Age, the adventures of Norrin Radd rank among the definitive tales of
all Marveldom! Not only will you be awed beyond imagination by the
Surfer’s origin, you’ll also face alien invasions, be torn down to the
depths of hell by the utterly evil Mephisto, struggle against the
Stranger, and face galaxy-conquering barbarians set on the destruction
of…well, everything! Lest we forget what by many is considered the most
beautifully rendered story in Marvel history, the Surfer’s tÍte ‡ tÍte
with the mighty Thor! These double-length stories of drama and despair
are a must-have for any and every Marvelite, and to prove we mean it,
we’re including the Surfer’s first-ever solo adventure from the pages
of FANTASTIC FOUR ANNUAL #5 as bonus!

While the X-Men battle the Goblin Queen and her demonic hordes, the
heroes of New York struggle with their own cases among the blistering
heat wave and attacking inanimate objects! The events of the Inferno
didn’t just hit the mutants! Collected here, Power Pack and the New
Mutants fight a new demon-powered Bogeyman! Jarvis rescues Glory
Garsen! A new team of Avengers forms as the Captain, Mr. Fantastic,
Invisible Woman, Gilgamesh, and Thor save Franklin Richards from Nanny
and Orphan-Maker! The Fantastic Four battle Graviton, Kang the
Conqueror, and Necrodamus, with guest star Mantis! Spider-Man fights

man named Peter with amazing spider-like abilities — but instead of New
York City, he’s a proud resident of the settlement at Roanoke. There’s
a group of four adventurers endowed with amazing powers — but instead
of a spaceship, they steer a boat. And the rampaging giant known as the
Hulk? Well, he’s pretty much the same. Though King James of England
might prefer things stay the same, the Earth is in flux — with much of
the change occurring across the Atlantic in the New World. Though Sir
Nicholas Fury and the super-powered Witchbreed may have disappeared,
more and more superhumans are making themselves known — which prompts
the king to take drastic measures. Elsewhere, another ruler — Otto Von
Doom of Latveria — is taking drastic measures of his own as he mounts
an expedition to what he believes to be, quite literally, the ends of
the Earth. Along for the ride are the beautiful but deadly Natasha
Romanova, the bizarrely powered four who are frightful and a kidnapped

Catching up with the past. Years ago, Wolverine was subjected to a

machine, the scientists added an unbreakable metal skeleton to the
razor-sharp bone-claws and miraculous healing ability their guinea pig

Wilson decides it’s time for him to join the revolution. But he soon
find outs that big guns and a healing factor don’t an X-Man make. So

his daughter is being held captive on Utopia, Deadpool decides he can
finally make the X-Men love him — really, really love him — by
assassinating Mercury’s father. Will Wade succeed and single-handedly
set back mutant/human relations 50 years? Will he ever become an X-Man?

and the Dalmatian spot over her eye? What was that first question
again? Collecting DEADPOOL #13-18.
